At the unripened age of 11, Harlow and her family would receive an unexpected guest; one who would bring mystery and danger wherever they went. One who would change their lives forever.
Years later, rumors of war have reached this small town's ears. Harlow trains for the fight of her life. Being a woman, she must conceal that fact from everyone on the battle field. She makes a friend in the choas at the training camp. He somehow knows her secret. But how? She's given no hints. But it won't matter for long. Because what she does on the battle field will change her life forever.
The battle is brutal and long, but the danger doesn't stop after her victory. Harlow will have to recall all the painful memories of the battle to discover why her beloved friend seeks to take revenge against her.
They say 'the truth will set you free', but maybe it's a good thing Harlow can't remember the truth of that solemn day.

But not long after, things begin to go downhill, and her hopes begin to crumble. Harlow thinks that maybe once she's put her life back together, along with her hope, maybe everything would be normal again. But maybe everything wasn't meant to be normal, maybe it was all meant to be awful and way too truthful for her liking. It isn't just any normal story, after all; it's hers.Complete
